Rolling with the Blog Tour


For the next two weeks, I'm going on tour--a virtual tour of the blogosphere.  My publisher is giving away free copies of my books.  Reviewers are letting you know what they think of Persuasion: A Latter-day Tale.  And I'm doing a few guest posts here and there."Why the picture of cinnamon rolls?" you ask.  Because I'm also giving away the cinnamon roll recipe Anne makes in Persuasion: A Latter-day Tale.  (It's at the bottom of this post.) 
So here's the blog tour schedule for the next three days:
